I think it's gotta be EVIL. It starts to feel like they're testing out the waters with him.

That catch-German on Ishii :stonk:
That was my favorite spot in a match that had a bunch of neat spots. Great match in the second half; first half didn't quite drag me in.

I guess it's shaping up to a EVIL/Shibata final, but we've already seen some surprises.

Also who is this "Fale" you speak of? njpwworld.com clearly says this match is Yano VS bad rack Whare.

it's really good if anyone hasn't been watching the second round matches. Sanada is a future star for sure.
He certainly is and this match cements him as a capable singles wrestler if he wasn't already.

Me too. It was well done with Shibata kicking out really late.

Thauros posted:

i'm not expecting him to beat Okada (wouldn't completely shock eme tho) but I think winning the NJC and headlining one of their 5 biggest shows is a fairly clear indicator that the sexts didn't hurt his push.
I never got that impression. Sure he was a bit directionless outside of the RPW title, but it's not like he's been dropping losses like candy.

I don't see why they would do a champ vs champ match and don't see what the benefit would be for either competitor in that scenario. Then, if Ibushi wins the IC, you would have to have Kenny drop the US title before WK. Then there's the issue of the winner. Kenny winning and "upgrading" to the IC doesn't accomplish much besides shuffling around belts for no real benefit and making Ibushi's reign look like a fluke. If Ibushi retains then Kenny looks weaker than ever, just months after he finally slew his dragon by beating Okada. Outside of the latter being the catalyst for the long-rumored Bullet Club/Elite split, I don't see any winners come out of such a scenario.

I recently saw a bit of him as Kurosawa in WCW and while not exactly agile, it took a while for me to recognize him as Nakanishi because he was certainly a lot more mobile back then than today.

Since everybody is talking about the Kenny/Jericho brawls, I'd like to mention that I really enjoyed Okada snapping and attacking Naito post match. It adds a little more edge to Okada's character, shows Naito's getting under his skin and sets up that submission hold as important. :discourse:

there might be an added hair stip to the match according to an observer radio from a few days ago, but i don't know how accurate that is.
Goto did offer his hair vs. the title at the Tag League finals, so an official announcement is only matter of time. Maybe they'll run an angle with Suzuki officially accepting on the Road To shows.

Thinking about it, there's the whole "Suzuki won't say Goto's name"du ng going on. Has Gedo been watching NXT? :v:
